To be fair, it is the other side of the truck, so the bumper could be mis-aligned from left to right. And the valance tucks under a lot more when you look at it from behind the front wheel versus bang-on or from the front because you can't see the very bottom, which curves a lot.
It does look like the lower valance was cut straight out though, because it doesn't turn to start forming a semi-circle, but that could be the difference in angles like I said above.
Just looking at it, the truck looks high enough to clear them cause it's so damn big.

^Looks VERY clean cosmetically!
Kid around here got a 01-03 dark grey screw that looked equally clean, exceptionally clean, and busted up the whole side of it a month or two later. Real shame.

Thanks! I practically stole it.
And oh yes I can relate to that, I had a 97 F350 OBS with the 7.3. 6" lift, 35s, and about 10k into the motor, head studs, injectors, HPOPS, intercooler, efuel, bigger turbo, full BTS tranny. Rolled it. Like an @sshole. Not a day goes by that I dont miss Leroy...

Oh no . . . that sounds like it was incredible . . . at least you got a good replacement! But I'd LOVE a 94-97 7.3 screw. Favorite body style from the last 30 years or so.

I know it's from the movie haha that's why I asked if you were. I'm Scottish though and it's one of my favorite movies (should be up there on everyone's list in my opinion), so I love the name!

well the pad doesn't sit under it for the most part anyway, there's that little lip and it meets up with the grille around then. they all stick out, to me it just looks cut.. the edges aren't even smooth anymore
this is true, the edges look cut and they don't line up. but who am i to say, looking at pics it looks cut, but if he says it isn't guess it isn't...

the bumper is pushed out because of the body lift relocation brackets for the bumpers
Looks surprisingly close to mine lol.. Nice rig..!

If so, I actually just installed a factory handle with the keypad in my truck because the trucks are set up for it.

Yes. It's a keyless entry pad. I use mine all the time when I don't want to carry my keys with me, like when I park at the airport, for example.
